【推荐2】Four stories to inspire you
Flipkart: Flipkart is a well-known e-commerce service provider that delivers the ordered product right from the shop to your doorstep. At first, Flipkart was a book market, but as it kept growing, it now sells almost everything. Its name currently comes in the top 5 global billion-dollar startups (初创公司) with a net cost of $11 billion according to the reports by The Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones VentureSource.
RedBus: RedBus was launched in 2016, and in just five years, the company has grown rapidly. The company works to improve the booking of road transport and hotels via the online platform (平台). Its success is a result of an idea that three businessmen, Charan, Phanindra and Sudhakar came up with when Phanindra couldn’t go back home for a festival without a bus ticket.
Zomato: The company was launched in 2008, and in just 13 years, it has become one of the most known and globally liked food delivery and restaurant rating platforms. It currently covers 331, 200 restaurants in 19 countries. Many don’t know it was originally started as Foodiebay.com. The idea was so good that it was well received within two years of its launch in India and went on to obtain global recognition in another two years.
HestaBit: The company was a tech startup back in 2012 but it has now become one of the leading website development firms. The three founders, Dipanshu Upadhyay, Harshvardhan Lakhera and Prashant Gautam, started the company back in their college days with a little uncertainty and some big dreams. However, since they moved ahead in time, they not only expanded their business across the USA, the UK and India, but gained recognition from famous organizations like Bill.

I joined a crowd that ran from terminal to terminal in search of a flight out. Eventually, I found six strangers willing to rent a van with me. We drove through the night to Washington, where I took a train the rest of the way to Providence.
The real problem, of course, is that incidents like this happen every day, to everyone who flies, more and more often. It really gets to me, though, because for eight years I was on the other side, as a flight attendant for Trans-World Airlines(TWA).
I know the days are gone when attendants could be written up if we did not put the lines napkins with the TWA logo in the lower right-hand corner of the first-class diners’ trays. As are the days when there were three dinner options on flights from Boston to Los Angeles in economy class. When, once, stuck on a tarmac (机场停机坪) in Newark for four hours, a planeload of passengers got McDonald’s hamburgers and fries by thoughtfulness of the airline.
I have experienced the decline of service along with the rest of the flying public. But I believe everything will change little by little, because I remember the days when to fly was to soar (翱翔). The airlines, and their employees, took pride in how their passengers were treated. And I think the days are sure to come back one day in the near future.
